EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning hand-colored copperplate engraving by Georg Wolfgang Knorr showcases the exquisite beauty of nature's most fascinating creatures. From the majestic Atlas moth to the vibrant Menelaus blue morpho and the intricate lanternfly, each specimen is meticulously detailed and brought to life with vibrant colors. The European butterflies depicted in this print are a true testament to the diversity and wonder of our natural world. Each butterfly is unique in its markings and colors, adding a touch of elegance to this collection of rare and exotic insects. Created in 1771 as part of Knorr's Deliciae Naturae Selectae series, this print captures the essence of a Wunderkammer or Cabinet of Curiosities, where collectors would display their most prized possessions from nature. Johann Ambrosius Beurer's collection must have been truly remarkable if it included such extraordinary specimens as these. As you gaze upon this enchanting image, let yourself be transported back in time to an era when curiosity about the natural world knew no bounds. The delicate beauty of these creatures serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our planet's biodiversity for future generations to enjoy.
